    + Version 0.10.1 of libstatgrab has been released.
    + Download it from one of our mirrors. +

    +

    + This release consists almost entirely of bugfixes. + We've fixed compile-time errors for recent OpenBSD and + NetBSD platforms, and also a minor bug in statgrab + that broke network statistics on Solaris. New + variables have been added to the pkg-config file to + suggest ownership and permissions of binaries, and + we've added error reporting functions that store errno + values. There's also other minor fixes detailed in the + NEWS file. +

    + Version 0.10 of libstatgrab has been released.
    + Download it from one of our mirrors. +

    +

    + This release concentrates heavily on standardising the names + of functions and structures throughout libstatgrab. Although + this will mean changes for existing programs, in the long run + we hope it'll make things both clearer and easier. However, + for those who still need the old functions we have provided + compatibility wrappers. See the NEWS file for details. +

    +

    + The other main change in this release is a new function to + provide full details on currently running processes. See the + documentation for sg_get_process_stats for details. Along with + this there are compare functions for use with qsort for sorting + process, network, and disk io statistics. We've also introduced + error reporting functions that allow calling applications to + see why libstatgrab has returned a failure. See sg_get_error. +

    +

    + Finally, we've added support for NetBSD 2.0 and tidied up lots + of areas of the code. This release does not include the python + bindings - they're now available as their own project called + pystatgrab. +
